IENTAL SERVICE
Passengers Will Start Sun
day On 10,700-Mile Jaunt
New Trade Era Is
Seen As Result of Route
By CHARLES E. HAHNLR.
(Associated Press Staff Writer.)
NEW YORK. Oct. 3. Tbe long
est passenger air -tour ever attempted
across territory under the American
flag was being organized here today,
It Is an air Odyssey which will be
gin Sunday and go half-way around
the world commercial aviation's
conquest of the air from New York
to the Philippine Islands.
The tour is not an attempt to break
records Its mission Is to report the
progress of American aviation but
the 10,700-mlle journey will be ac
complished In six days of travel.
The members of the tour will take
part in the preliminary passenger
flight of Pan-American Airways across
the Pacific ocean, a survey of con
ditions which will be experienced by
ordinary travelers when the line is
opened for the first regular passen
ger flight to the Orient, October 31.
The first part of the Journey
3,500 miles from New York to San
Francisco will be covered in 18 hours
over the United Air lines,
The second part 8,210 miles from
Alameda, Cal to Mallna will start
October 7 and occupy five days. . It
will be flown In one of the 26-ton
"clipper ships" with which Pan-
American Is about to begin the op
eratlon of passenger service from
continental United States to the far
east.
The flight, to be accomplished en
tirely by commercial transport planes
flying in regular routes, opens an
era In which American, salesmen can
reach their far eastern markets In
the time It formerly took them to
oross the continent. It helps knit
Asia and America Into a definite
trade entity.
Military experts see the develop
ment as an aid to the defense of
American territories In the Pacific
and to the defense of the coast Itself.

SALT LAKE CITY. Oct. 2. ()
Wild ducks that don't give a darn
what they drink are committing sui
cide by thousands on the Utah, Ari
zona. Nevada and California desert
"Each year." Newell B. Cook. Utah
game commissioner, said today, "many
more ducks die from tainted water
than axe shot.
'In a Dad year more ducks are
poisoned than hunters In the area
would kill In half a century."
Southward bound, tlw ducks dip
Into pools, soon become groggy .
Their necks go limp, their legs be
come paralyzed and they exhibit all
the signs of extreme Intoxication
but it's worse than that. It's "duck
sickness" desert dysentery.
Until you've seen them, lying dead
on the Utah salt flats, a feathered
body every few feet for mile after
mile, you can't realize the serious
ness of the situation, said Cook.
"I have pictures of sections within
10-mile area which must have con
talned over half a million dead
ducks."
The illness Is caused by stale water.
The birds die in great numbers only
when a rainstorm has left tiny pools
over the desert or, as in a recent in
stance, when wind blows lake water
Into shallow ponds along shorelines.
Cook said some efforts are made
to rescue birds--they recover quickly
In fresh water. More affective than
"hospital measures," however, has
been the stationing of men with shot-
guna at the principal danger areas
to frighten away the tired or thirsty
fowl.
"But our funds are limited," he
said. "This is a problem .of great
importance to sportamen everywhere
We look for greater federal aid In
its solution."

PEAVY CONFIRMS
40TH ANNIVERSARY
CORVALLIS. Oct. 2. R) Although
Norman Thomas, candidate for the
presidency tm the Socialist party
ticket, made no request lor the use
of a building on the Oregon state
campus for a political address. Presi
dent Ocorge W. Peavy said yesieroay
such an application would have been
turned down.
The college executive pointed out
that a policy existed preventing the
use of campus buildings for political
purposes.
A similar request from Col. Prank
Knox, Republican candidate for vice
president, was rejected. Peavy said.
Col. Knox recently spoke here at Bell
field, owned by the Associated Stu
dents. The Corvallls schol board refused
Thomas permission to use the high
schol auditorium.
It was understood here that the
Socialist party representatives In Ore
gon had dispatched a iettr to Chan
cellor Hanter. demanding a "tnorougr.

series of abuses of constitutional
fruBrantee at the state college."

discovered springs of remarkable
quality at Tumwater. and analysis
showed tails water would make won
derful beer. He returned to Montana
and sold his Interests. In Tumwater,
